"Roan Rose" is the story of Rose Whitby, picked up like a stray puppy by the Countess of Warwick to be a nurse/servant for her sickly daughter, Anne. Of course, Richard is there too, a young Duke with a twisted spine, who has been sent for knightly training to the house of Anne's father. The three children form an unequal friendship, for Rose can never be anything but a servant. As they all mature, Rose shares Anne's experiences of war, of an early marriage and widowhood, of abduction, terror, and rescue. When Richard and Anne finally marry, as they've always desired, Rose is set aside and given a man of her own. Everyone supposes that will be the end of her involvement with her royal loves, but the fate which engulfs them is stranger than anyone could have imagined.
"Loyalty Binds Me" was King Richard's motto. However, "Loyalty Binds Her" might be the blurb for this story. Rose's love and loyalty will be tested to the limit; she will give her master and mistress all she has.
